Foreword 5 FOREWORD

Dear Friends,

“Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.”

So St Paul begins his two letters to his devoted disciple Timothy, and that is my greeting to you all as we conclude the celebration of the universal Year of Mercy, and continue to celebrate our own Fortieth Anniversary Year as a Diocese.

May these gifts from God grow and spread among us as we move into the new year of our Salvation, 2017!

Pope Francis, writing to us last June to wish us well for our fortieth anniversary, quoted his own encyclical Evangelii Gaudium: “May you all be renewed in your love of Christ and in turn revitalise your parishes, so that all may be “a community of communities, a sanctuary where the thirsty come to drink in the midst of their journey, and a centre of constant missionary outreach.”

What a magnificent image for us to adopt as we seek to bring the Gospel to the people of East Anglia as ambassadors for Christ and his mercy and continue our pilgrim way towards Heaven - a Sanctuary, a holy place, dedicated to the service of God, and the home where he chooses to dwell.

As we seek by God’s grace to grow in holiness and to conform our lives to that of Jesus Christ, only then can we be properly equipped for the New Evangelisation and bring others to know and love the one true God and Jesus Christ whom he has sent. “In this way, you will manifest God’s love and mercy to the broader community and share the richness of our faith in Christ Jesus.” [Pope Francis].

The Holy Father concluded his message of greeting to us by commending us to the loving protection of Our Lady of Walsingham.

May our loving Mother assist us to conceive the Lord in our hearts, so that we may make him a reality in our lives and in the lives of others.

Thank you for supporting the annual publication of the Yearbook. It is filled with useful information and reflective articles – I am grateful to those who have been responsible for bringing it all together once again.

With all good wishes and prayer, yours devotedly,

Rt Rev Alan Hopes Bishop of East Anglia EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:29 Page 6

Diocese of East Anglia 19 DIOCESE OF EAST ANGLIA

The Diocese of East Anglia is a suffragan diocese within the Province of Westminster, erected on 13 March 1976 by the decree Quod Ecumenicum of Pope Paul VI, using territory taken from the Diocese of Northampton, which was created in 1850. After the Reformation, the area of East Anglia was soon placed under the care of the Vicars Apostolic of the Midland District, and later of the Eastern District, until the hierarchy was restored by Pope Blessed Pius IX. Today, the Diocese incorporates the English counties of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire and the city of Peterborough.

THE BISHOP The Rt Rev Alan Stephen Hopes BD AKC converted to Catholicism in 1994 and was ordained a priest of the Diocese of Westminster the following year. He worked in Kensington and Chelsea and later was appointed Vicar General of the Diocese. He was ordained to the episcopate by Cardinal Murphy-O’Connor in 2003, holding the title of Titular Bishop of Chester-le-Street, and serving as Auxiliary Bishop in Westminster, until he was appointed Bishop of East Anglia in 2013. He took possession of his Cathedral in Norwich on 16 July 2013.

The Bishop’s Predecessors The Rt Rev Alan Charles Clark was the first Bishop of the newly erected Diocese, from its creation in 1976 until his resignation in 1995. He was previously Titular Bishop of Elmham and Auxiliary Bishop of Northampton. He died in 2002 and is buried in Walsingham.

The Most Rev Peter David Smith was ordained Bishop of East Anglia by Cardinal Hume in 1995 and served as Bishop until 2001, when he was translated to the See of Cardiff. In 2010, he became Archbishop of Southwark.

The Rt Rev Michael Charles Evans was ordained Bishop of East Anglia by Cardinal Murphy-O’Connor in 2003 and served the Diocese until his death in 2011. His corporal remains are buried in the Cathedral in Norwich.

Catholic Certificate in Religious Studies (CCRS) The Catholic Certificate in Religious Studies (CCRS) is managed and awarded by the Board of Religious Studies on behalf of the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales. It was introduced in 1991 to replace its predecessors, The Catholic Teachers’ Certificate and the Certificate in Religious Education. Any person who is or wishes to be involved in Catholic education and formation may apply for this course. This includes those involved in Religious Education in schools, Parish Catechesis and other ministries in the Church and anyone who wishes to follow the course for faith development or personal interest. The course seeks to ensure that participants have at least a basic knowledge and understanding of the beliefs of the Catholic Faith. It also provides a basis for further study.

The course was revised in 1992. It is designed for teachers in Catholic schools; that they may have a basic understanding of the Church, its teaching and way of life to enable them to contribute to the maintenance of the ethos of the Catholic school. It is also for catechists in order to give them a basic understanding of the faith of the Catholic Church as a foundation for their catechetical ministry, and for adult members of the Church to enable them to continue to grow in understanding as they live their Catholic faith.

Feature - 2017 51 New Evangelisation continues

Episcopal Vicar for the New Evangelisation, Rev Dr Sean Connolly, looks back at a busy year for the New Evangelisation Commission in 2016 and forward to plans for 2017.

I 2016 was a busy time ‘behind the scenes’ for the Commission as it sought to help parishes set up Proclaim Teams - groups within each parish that focus on the work of the New Evangelisation.

Some 22 parishes have now had the chance to reflect on this important mission, covering three out of the five deaneries in the diocese, with some also taking advantage of media training offered by our new communications director, Keith Morris (pictured above at a workshop in Beccles).

Already parishes in the Coastal deanery, in Cambridge and around Ipswich, together with our pilot parishes in Diss, Norwich and Peterborough, have their teams up and running and are trying out new ideas to ensure their communities remain welcoming and outward-looking.

This coming year ahead will also be a busy time as parishes from the remaining two deaneries are supported in their setting up of teams and we move into the third phase of Bishop Alan’s plan for the New Evangelisation: the evangelisation of our local communities.

Of course, evangelisation is the work of the whole parish and not just a small group within it and the Proclaim teams are there to act like leaven in each of our communities, encouraging everyone to engage with this mission of the Church - helping others to encounter Christ.

Key to this will be a willingness for people to continue to grow in prayer, study their faith, give generously to others in a myriad of ways, and find a new boldness in being prepared to share their faith.

It was Jesus himself who, after his resurrection, appeared to the disciples while they were at supper and said to them: ‘Go out to the whole world: proclaim the Gospel to all creation’. (Mark 16:15) EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 52

52 Obituaries OBITUARIES Fr David Skeoch (1937-2016)

Former Anglican priest, Fr David Skeoch, who joined Catholic church and the Ordinariate in 2001 has died aged 78. Fr Russell Frost pays tribute.

I Born in Murton in County Durham in 1937 David, an only child, quickly demonstrated that had a keen brain and an incisive personality. These won him a place at Christ Church, Oxford, to read History. Oxford opened up for David a vast new world. His mordant wit and trenchant apophthegms attracted a coterie of friends and connections which lasted lifelong.

Originally he planned a career as an archaeologist, but began to explore the possibility of a vocation to ministry in the Church of England. After some years teaching, first in the North East of England and later in London he was ordained as a Non-Stipendiary Minister - "worker priest" in Catholic terminology - in the Anglican Diocese of London, being attached to the wealthy and prestigious parish of St Mary, Bourne Street.

In the late 1970s, Bishop Graham Leonard appointed him as his Domestic Chaplain when he became Bishop of Truro. David accompanied Bishop Leonard back to London in 1981, when the bishop was promoted to that diocese.

In 1983 he became Vicar of St Gabriel's Parish, Pimlico, an office he retained until his retirement in 2007. A friend from Oxford days, then Bishop of the Murray in Australia, made David a Canon of that diocese.

On retirement, David moved to Ipswich and quickly made himself popular in the Anglican parish of St Mary at the Elms. Quite unexpectedly, in 2011, he made the courageous decision to be received into full Communion with the Catholic Church and joined the newly-created Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham. Ordained a Catholic priest later that year he was generous in his time and dedication to the parish of St Mary, Ipswich, as well as undertaking leadership of the tiny Ordinariate group in the Ipswich vicinity. All agree that at this time his somewhat fiery and explosive character mellowed dramatically as he found contentment in his new position.

Ill health tragically dogged his final years, and a rapid decline in the last six months led to his death in the West Suffolk Hospital on March 10.

May Our Lady of Walsingham, to whom he had a deep devotion, and in whose Ordinariate and Diocese he was proud to belong, pray for him as he continues his pilgrimage to the Heavenly Father.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory. EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 53

Fr Tony Webb (1942-2016)

Fr Tony Webb, a Catholic priest in King’s Lynn, Haverhill, Sheringham and Fakenham with a gift for pastoral care, has died at the age of 73. Fr David Bagstaff pays tribute.

I Tony was born to Sidney and Eva Webb on August 26, 1942 at Bushey Heath, Hertfordshire. His earlier career took him into catering with London Transport, as well as a variety of other short-term jobs, including a time at the head office for the Church of England Children’s Society.

Being a late vocation, he began his studies for the priesthood at Campion House, Osterley and was ordained for the Canons Regular of the Lateran by Bishop Cyril Restieaux at St Mary’s, Bodmin on May 5, 1983.

Following various parish and chaplaincy appointments, Fr Tony approached Bishop Alan Clark with a view to working within the Diocese of East Anglia. After a period as assistant priest at King’s Lynn (1990-1995) he was appointed Parish Priest at St Felix, Haverhill.

It was in 1997 that Tony was formally incardinated into our diocese. He remained in Haverhill until 2000 when Bishop Peter Smith appointed him to St Joseph’s, Sheringham. In 2008, Bishop Michael Evans asked him to take up the appointment as Parish Priest at St Anthony of Padua, Fakenham where he remained until his retirement earlier this year.

Tony had a number of pastoral gifts which he put at the service of the Church, in particular caring for the sick and elderly in the various parishes he worked within. He also enjoyed visiting parishioners in their homes. His pastoral care was appreciated by many who came to know him. He felt at home in the Diocese of East Anglia.

Tony didn’t enjoy good health and on occasions this could be challenging to himself and others; like all of us, Tony knew something of his limitations and of the constant need we have for God’s grace.

His interests included history and animals and it would not be right to conclude without a mention of his little pet dogs to which he was deeply attached. He died at the Norfolk and Norwich University hospital on May 26.

The Funeral Mass took place at The Chapel of Reconciliation, Walsingham on The Feast of St John the Baptist, June 24, following a Mass the evening before at St Anthony’s in Fakenham.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory. EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 54

Mgr Tony Philpot (1935-2016)

Former Diocese of East Anglia Vicar General and Spiritual Director at the Venerable English College in Rome, Mgr Tony Philpot, has died at the age of 81. Mgr Tony Rogers pays tribute.

I Anthony (known as Tony) John Philpot was born on March 24, 1935, in Croydon, the eldest child of William and Josephine. When war broke out his fa- ther’s office was moved to Bedford, and he subse- quently went to Bedford School, alma mater of John Bunyan. While there, one of his teachers, who had observed Tony’s cerebral, rather than practical nature wrote in an end-of-year report “This boy will go through life pushing doors marked ‘pull’.”

Tony was no master of ready wit and repartee, but his wry observations of the unusual led to quietly humorous, but never cruel, comments.

In 1953 he began his studies for the priesthood at the Venerable English College in Rome, and was ordained in 1959 at the Basilica of St John Lateran, completing his Licentiate in Theology the next year, and returning to the Diocese of Northampton to serve as assistant priest, first at St Joseph’s, Bedford and then at Northampton Cathedral. His first pastoral charge was in Leighton Buzzard, and, there- after all his parish appointments were in what later became the Diocese of East Anglia.

He took over the parish of St Mark’s in Ipswich, and was later moved to Newmarket, following a short spell working with the Society of St James in South America. In 1980, Bishop Clark asked him to move to Our Lady and the English Martyrs in Cambridge, where he remained for 14 years. His time there, where his gifts as a talented preacher and a gentle pastor were much appreciated, was one of change. Though the liturgical wars which had dogged his predecessor, Canon Paul Taylor, were over, Tony was involved in major reorganisation of Catholic state secondary education in Cambridge, as well as a much needed refurbishment of the rectory. It wasn’t a blissfully happy time for him there. Living with others was not his default position and he was often quite reserved.

When the Diocese of East Anglia was established in 1976, Bishop Alan Clark asked him to take charge of religious education, and later appointed him as a vicar general.

The 1980s was a time when mutual support for the priests of the diocese was given high priority, and Tony was given responsibility to head up the Ministry to Priests programme. He had also become involved in the Jesus Caritas Fraternity, inspired by the spirituality of Charles de Foucauld, for which he eventually became the worldwide responsable. This took him out of the country for a considerable time each year.

He was elected to the Old Brotherhood of the English Secular clergy, a body which had, in penal times, been responsible for the governance of the Catholic Church in England and Wales until the appointment of Vicars Apostolic, and which has continued as a fraternity of 24 priests ever since.

Obituaries 55

Following his time in Cambridge, Tony took the unusual step of returning to St Mark’s in Ipswich (where he had been parish priest some years before), following the departure of the Franciscans, and after a relatively short time there, he was asked to take over the running of Palazzola, the country villa of the English College in Rome, on the edge of Lake Albano. He was increasingly in demand as a retreat giver, and there can be few dioceses in England and Wales that did not benefit from his accessible wisdom and deeply-rooted personal spirituality. His way with words was put to good use in an excellent booklet on the sacrament of reconciliation, called ‘Clearing the Site’ and two books – ‘Priesthood in Reality – living the reality of the diocesan priest in a changing world.’ and ‘You Shall be Holy – spiritual basics.’ Perhaps, unsurprisingly, he was asked to move from Palazzola, to become Spiritual Director at the Venerable English College, a post which he held for about five years.

Retirement from the College took him to Peterborough, where his phenomenal gifts as a linguist were put to good use in ministering to the large Portuguese community in the city, whose language he had made it his business to learn before leaving Rome.

But his time in Peterborough was interrupted, when he was asked to return to Rome and help out at the Beda College for a year. Contact with seminarians in formation, and priests in active ministry in his own diocese and beyond meant that there can be few who wouldn’t at least have recognised his name, even if they had no personal encounter.

After some years in Peterborough he took the bold decision to move to London when an independent flat became available at St Anne’s home in Stoke Newington. Living in London meant he was much nearer to his sisters Margaret and Cathie. Cancer eventually took over and he was transferred to the nursing home section of St Anne’s. But even in his last days his facility for learning languages continued, and to ensure that he could chat to Romanian care workers, he set about mastering that tongue. He struggled bravely, and died on July 16. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

Fr Paul Mercer (1938-2016)

Fr Mark Hackeson pays tribute to Fr Paul Mercer who retired as a priest in Bury St Edmunds last year and died on September 8.

I Jeremiah Peter Paul Mercer was born in the farming town of Tralee in SW Ireland on June 27, 1938, the eldest of two brothers, with an English mother and Irish father. Coming from a strong Catholic family, the young Paul attended St John’s Church and the Dominican School of the Holy Cross in Tralee.

Paul’s father was recruited to the Royal Airforce in 1946 with postings as far away as Rhodesia, modern day Zimbabwe. By 1958 the family had moved to England and Paul spent the next 10 years with his father, mother and younger brother Jim, moving between RAF stations, culminating in a final move to RAF Honington, where his father had gained the rank of flight sergeant. For his work as physical training instructor (PTI) and rehabilitating aircrew his father was awarded the British Empire Medal in 1976.

Around this time, Paul and his friends from the station would come to Bury St Edmunds for a night out, and this is where he would meet his future wife, Marie. At a dinner dance around 1963 he casually asked an attractive young trainee nurse where she was from, as he detected an Irish accent. When told Tralee, he of course said he too was from the same town. Marie, suspecting a line, was having none of it, until he was able to recount the street and place names familiar to them both. Marie continued her nursing and EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 56

midwifery training and they were married in St Edmunds in February 1966. Peter was born later that year followed by David, John and Paul all of whom were baptised and served as altar boys at St Edmunds.

Paul and Marie worked hard to raise their four sons in a happy and loving home. They continued to follow their faith in St Ed- munds and when the opportunity to explore entry to the permanent Diaconate arose, Paul discussed this with the then Parish Priest Mgr John Drury and was accepted to train at St Edmund’s College Cambridge. He was ordained along with 19 other men by the first Bishop of East Anglia, Alan Clarke, at St John’s in Norwich in 1991.

With Marie's help and support, Paul’s Dia- conal ministry brought him great fulfilment and was much appreciated by clergy and parishioners alike. He grew into the role beautifully, and his homilies came very much from the heart as he became more at ease with this aspect of his ministry.

Marie’s untimely death in 1998 was a great blow to Paul. He felt the loss keenly following 32 years of loving and happy marriage, and each year since 2001 he would celebrate Mass for her and in thanksgiving for their marriage on their wedding anniversary.

Throughout his life, Paul had often expressed his wish to explore his vocation to the priesthood, which dated back to his childhood. After discussions with the then Bishop, Peter Smith, he was offered the opportunity to test his vocation to the Priesthood at St John’s Seminary Wonersh. In 2001 he completed his studies, no small undertaking for a man in his 60s, and was ordained Priest in Bury St Edmunds where he continued to practice his ministry both at the Parish Church and as Chaplain to the Benedictine Sisters of Grace & Compassion at ‘Montana’ in Great Barton.

Paul delighted in being a priest and in priesthood he found the personal fulfilment that he had not found in his working life. He continued to balance the demands of the priesthood and fatherhood, providing support to both his parish and four sons in equal measure. In 2001, Paul was delighted to welcome his first grandson Charlie to the family, followed by Henry in 2007 and George in 2009.

In the last two years, ill health continued to afflict Paul - but he bore it bravely and it is good to know that he concelebrated the Wednesday morning Mass at St Edmund's only days before the stroke which took him from us.

Paul was a 'unique' priest - he has received all seven sacraments and in the two Sacraments of Commitment, as Marriage and Holy Orders are sometimes called, he found great happiness and fulfilment. His experience of married life, certainly informed his ministry both as deacon and priest. In a conversation with Paul's sons after his death it was concluded that Fr Paul “felt very blessed, humbled and privileged to have been married, have a family and be called to the priesthood.” We have all benefitted from that.

Paul died peacefully at West Suffolk Hospital on September 8, surrounded by his sons, having fully participated in the reception of the Sacraments. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 57

Rev Fr Arthur (Sandy) Phelps (1921-2016)

Cambridge priest Rev Fr Arthur (Sandy) Phelps, known for his uncompromising love of God and the Catholic Church, has died at the age of 95. Mgr Eugene Harkness pays tribute.

I Sandy was born on 6 September 1921 in New York City and baptised on 23 October, 1921, as an Episcopalian. His father, Arthur Korth, was a first generation American whose parents were German. His mother was the daughter of Franz von Rottenberg and Marian Phelps.

Sandy’s maternal grandmother, Marian, was the daughter of the American ambassador to Germany and his maternal grandfather, Franz von Rottenberg had a very distinguished career in the German government under Bismarck but retired to become Rector of Bonn University before the outbreak of World War I.

Sandy spent his early years in fashionable parts of America, but when his parents divorced the ensuing scandal led his mother to leave for Europe and she settled in Bournemouth. She subsequently reverted to using her mother’s maiden name and also changed the surnames of her two sons Arthur (Sandy) and William to Phelps.

Sandy’s education started at his prep school St Wulframs, then Sherborne, ending up at Arosa in Switzerland. After the war he went up to Sidney Sussex, Cambridge to read theology with a view to becoming an Anglican clergyman, but conversion to the Catholic faith changed the direction of his life.

He was accepted for the Diocese of Portsmouth and was sent to The Beda College, Rome. Ordained on 26 March 1955, Sandy had some parish assignments in Portsmouth.

An hiatus in his diocesan ministry took place and he went off to spend some time in Switzerland at a monastic hermitage of the Camaldulense Order. Eventually he returned to a live in England and made his home in the Diocese of East Anglia where Bishop Peter Smith permitted him to function in a minor capacity.

Devotion to Our Lady and The Cenacle movement figured large in his life along with that to the Divine Mercy. These elements formed his future years as a priest in Cambridge and led him to an active and much cherished life at St Philip Howard Parish.

He was fortified by the rites of the Church on the Feast of St Philip Howard (19 October) and then went into a coma. He died on the Feast of Pope St John Paul II the promoter of The Divine Mercy on 22 October, quietly and surrounded by parishioners just before the 3 o’clock prayer.

He will be remembered for his humility, his brilliant mind, his enjoyment of music, both sacred and secular, but most of all for his uncompromising love of God and the Catholic Church which manifested itself daily. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 58

58 Vocations VOCATIONS

Changing Lives

The vocation to be a religious or a priest changes not only the life of the person called but also the life of those to whom they will minister. Above all, this is a moment to invite everyone to be involved in the process of changing lives through their prayer for vocations.

Coupled with the nurturing atmosphere in their homes, parishes and schools this will enable those who are called to respond to such a vocation a time of grace for all the faithful as we pray together that the Lord will change lives by raising up more ordained and consecrated people.

When a person accepts the call of Christ to be a priest or a religious, their life is changed. But so are the lives of thousands of people who will be touched through their ministry.

Lives are changed through the preaching of a priest, through the care of a religious sister or brother, through the prayers offered by enclosed nuns and monks. In these ways, a life changed in turn changes many lives. Completing this virtuous circle is the prayer of lay people for vocations to the priesthood and religious life, combined with the encouragement of those they know who are considering such a vocation. This too can change a life.

Here are words for us all from Pope Francis:

“Dear lay faithful, be close to your priests with affection and with your prayers, that they may be always be shepherds according to God’s heart. And pray for those whom God is calling to be priests that they may respond to this call with humility and joy.

“Dear priests, may God the Father renew in us the Spirit of holiness with whom we have been anointed. May he renew his spirit in our hearts so that this anointing may spread to everyone, especially to those “outskirts” where our lay faithful people most look for it and most appreciate it. May our people sense that we are the Lord’s disciples; and may they receive through our words and deeds the oil of gladness which Jesus, the Anointed One, came to bring us.”

The celebration of Good Shepherd Sunday (April 30, 2017) is an opportunity to pray that the Lord will raise up more people to inspire the Church as priests and consecrated women and men. This is a moment of prayer for these specific vocations.

Vocations 59 Vocations – Paul Spellman

Second year seminarian at the Beda College in Rome, Paul Spellman, tells of his experience so far.

I As someone who has thought about the priesthood for many years, and has tried his vocation in a monastic setting, I was both ap- prehensive and excited about heading off to seminary; not least because it was in Rome.

My first year was full of new opportunities; living abroad, going back into study after quite a while, examining my own personal development, living in community and sharing the common desire to serve God and the Church. Living in community, which I wasn't looking forward to, has brought both its ups and downs.

However, the support the students give each other most definitely outweighs any of the downsides. I have experienced the many riches that living with others offers a community-minded group of people. During my first year I was able to attend lectures/talks/reflections outside of the seminary given on several different topics and presented by different people, including Cardinal Tagle of the Philippines and an amazing retreat day by Pope Francis.

During my summer break, I did my first pastoral placement at St Peter's and All Saints in Peterborough, which was superb; visiting the hospital, becoming more actively involved in the 'Alive and Faith' campaign and spending time experiencing the day-to-day life of a busy city parish was a true gift. I then flew out to Poland with the Diocesan Pilgrims to World Youth Day. As a '45-year-old' this was probably the most daunting experience I faced all year. I really wasn't looking forward to it. However, it was a true eye-opener to the way God works through all our lives.

I was deeply moved by the whole experience. I found the prayers we shared, the laughs and the tears, the long walks and the spiritual nourishment so rewarding. The experience of spending almost 36 hour with over two million young people in a field was truly humbling. Listening to the experiences of other Christians from around the world, together with the inspiring words of the Holy Father, moved me to tears during the Saturday night vigil. I felt so moved by the whole experience that I have already volunteered for WYD 2019 in Panama.

I am just starting my second year back in Rome. The second year brings new challenges, mainly because of the house jobs that we are given during this year. I am one of the MC's for the college, which I am looking forward to being a part of. Although we are a large year group (15 students returning for their second year), I know that the opportunities and experiences ahead will help me to grow and develop in ways that I never thought possible. The time to reflect on 'who I am' and 'how God wants me to be' are wonderful and I look forward to the year ahead with a new sense of excitement, knowing that God is always there to offer us guidance and reassurance.

60 Vocations Vocations – Sr Michaela Switaj Sr Michaela Switaj was welcomed to the Daughters of Divine Charity, whose mother house is in Swaffham, in August at a public Mass, along with four others. Afterwards she spoke to Radio Norfolk about her calling.

I “It was my life-long dream to join the sisters and it came true in England because I lived in Norwich and travelled to Swaffham where the sisters live. It is a source of great joy for me especially as I found out that Sr Renata and I are the first new vocations in England for around 40 years.

“I felt this nagging feeling since I was eight or nine years old. In the town in Poland where I used to live we had some Salesian sisters and they looked after children. I was attending the choir and singing in church. The sisters often invited us to their house so we could participate in their lives and see what they do, how they work, how they pray and even help them around the house. They really engaged us in their life. I was really drawn to them when I saw how much they love each other and God and how they served other people and did it with joy. I felt very accepted and loved there and the lovely atmosphere drew me to God and I wanted to be like them and to serve God as well.

“I didn’t really know where they got their joy from. As my life went on I knew that they took this joy from God. They receive God’s love in prayer and this fills them with joy. The source of joy is when you feel loved by God – and nobody loves you as God loves you. It is the greatest kind of love that you can ever experience in your life and that is what I have experienced.

“I came to England when I was 18 years old and I entered when I was 19. Since I entered I have felt that this is my vocation and this is where I want to be for the rest of my life. It is a mystery even for us. When I lived in the world I had my family and my friends and my school and job but I still felt that there was something missing in my life and I could not find that deep joy which I found when I entered the convent as that was my call and you can’t be fulfilled when you don’t respond to God’s invitation.

“I would love to bring more people to Jesus. I would love to show them that he really does love them because people who I meet every day don’t really believe or feel God’s love in their lives or that he is working in their lives and this is what I would love them to know and that is what I want to show them in my life.” EastAnglia2017YearbookFrontSection_Layout 1 22/11/2016 11:30 Page 61

THEPresident ST Cardinal BARNABAS Vincent Nichols, Archbishop SOCIETY of Westminster

The Society exists to provide financial and pastoral help to former clergy, ministers and religious of other Christian communities who have been received into the full communion of the Catholic Church, and to their families.

When St Barnabas came and saw the grace of God, he was glad and exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose; for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. Acts 11.23-24

If you have a relative or a friend or are being admitted to hospital, please ensure that you indicate that you or they are a Catholic, and also would like the Catholic Chaplain to be informed of your presence in hospital. Otherwise, the Catholic Chaplain will not know that a Catholic patient is in the hospital. The secular authorities are not permitted to tell the Church if a patient is Catholic, and, according to secular rules and regulations, chaplains and parish priests are not permitted to communicate with one another regarding your presence in hospital without your permission. It is also good practice to inform hospital staff that you would like receive visitors, as some hospitals will not permit visitors who are not close family without prior permission from the patient.

Please inform: The hospital chaplain Your parish priest The nursing staff at the hospital upon arrival EastAnglia2017YearbookMidSection_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:17 Page 14

126 Financial Report

These summarised accounts may not contain sufficient information to allow for a full understanding of the financial affairs of the charity. For further information the full annual accounts, the auditor’s report on those accounts and the Trustees’ Annual Report should be consulted. Copies of these can be obtained from the White House, 21 Upgate, Poringland, Norwich NR14 7SH.

Statement of the Trustees We confirm that the extracts are a summary of information relating to both the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet from the annual accounts. The annual accounts were approved at the Trustees Meeting on 25th September 2016 and have been submitted to the Charity Commission. The Auditors’ Report as given on the full accounts was unqualified. The Rt Rev Alan Hopes 25th September 2016

Auditors Statement to the Trustees of The Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia We have examined the summarised financial statements set out on this page.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Auditors The Trustees for the preparation of the summarised financial statements. The Auditors have agreed to report on their consistency with the full financial statements, on which we reported on 25th September 2016.

Basis of opinion We have carried out the procedures we consider necessary to ascertain whether the summarised financial statements are consistent with the full financial statements from which they have been prepared.

Opinion In our opinion the summarised accounts are consistent with the full accounts of the Diocese for the year ended 31st December 2015. Price Bailey 25th September 2016

Notes to the Accounts 1. The Diocese of East Anglia is not wealthy. It has limited reserves or investments of its own, receives relatively small amounts through legacies and donations and has no means of raising income other than from its parishes. This it does by levying charges or quotas based as a percentage of parish offertory collections. The income which it receives is used to pay for the organisation and administration of all Diocesan activities, for the repairs and adaptations to its schools, for the training of future Diocesan priests and for all those services which are given to parishes without charge. Comments on some of these Diocesan activities, which are highlighted in the SOFA under “General Funds”, “Designated Funds”, or “Parochial Funds”, are included below.

2. The activities of the Diocese are largely undertaken through its parishes. Of the overall diocesan finances, parishes account for over 83% of income and approximately 71% of expenditure with some 70% of the Diocesan charity’s net assets being held at parochial level. The work of the parishes involves amongst other things the pastoral care of the Roman Catholic and general community of the parish and maintenance and upkeep of places of worship.

3. A fund-raising campaign has been undertaken since February 2015, managed by the professional fund-raising company, CCS. This has a primary aim to provide funding for: I Training of future priests EastAnglia2017YearbookMidSection_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:17 Page 31

Financial Report 127

I Support of retired clergy I Special Parish Projects I Social Outreach

During the year ended 31 December 2015, the project raised £123,441 from its trial phase in six parishes with total expenditure, including fundraiser’s costs for this period, being £205,563. Whilst a deficit is therefore reported in these accounts of £86,122, overall the campaign expects to raise £5.8 million over the next five years. Total fundraising costs over the five years are expected to be around 12% of the amount raised.

4. At 31 December 2015, the Diocese's reserves stood at £29.06m. Of this £3.28m is restricted to particular uses and £3.11m has been designated by the Trustees for certain specific purposes.

5. Of the remaining reserves parochial funds amount to £20.39m of which £13.84m is represented by fixed assets in the form of churches and other property which are required for the purposes of the Diocese and could not be realised without undermining its work. This leaves free parochial reserves of £6.55m which represents between one to two years’ total parochial expenditure and levy charges. This level of reserves is considered necessary by the Trustees to enable the parishes to conduct their work in an orderly and efficient manner as well as providing income through investments to supplement the amounts received by donations.

6. General reserves amount to £2.28m of which £0.72m is represented by fixed assets leaving free reserves of £1.56m. This is considered necessary in order for the Diocese to continue supporting and advising the parishes. The Trustees aim to maintain the Diocese's overall free reserves at least at the present level to continue to provide the support necessary for the Diocese to fulfil its objects.

GRAIL SECULAR INSTITUTE The Grail Secular Institute offers a particular way of life to single or widowed Catholic women. Those who belong, make a formal commitment to live out their baptismal promises through the channel of the Grail and its mission. There are two ways of belonging: as members of the Grail Community, or as individual members Companions. All members seek to find God in their everyday life situations. Community members live together, expressing a simple, uncluttered and celibate life-style. They aim to be open, to heal and to release the gifts of those whom they meet. They are accountable to those with whom they live and see all that they undertake as enabling people to grow towards their full potential. Companions of the Grail live independently and follow their chosen occupation. This makes specific demands on each person, but also provides challenge, support and guidance. They meet regularly in area groups and aim to be alert to developments and needs in both Church and society so as to bring an informed response to daily situations. Companions and the Grail Community spend time together each year to share more deeply the ethos and mission of the Grail. See also Grail Society, below.

Diocesan Calendar 145 DIOCESAN CALENDAR FOR EAST ANGLIA 2017

“Christ’s saving work is celebrated in sacred memory by the Church on fixed days throughout the course of the year. Each week on the day called the Lord’s Day the Church commemorates the Lord’s resurrection. Once a year at Easter the Church honours the resurrection of the Lord and his blessed passion with the utmost solemnity. In fact, through the yearly cycle the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and keeps the anniversaries of the saints.” (GNLY 1)

Preliminary Notes

I This Calendar is based on the GENERAL ROMAN CALENDAR, the NATIONAL CALENDAR as contained in the Roman Missal (2010) and the revised DIOCESAN CALENDAR. I The titular and anniversary of dedication of each church are kept as Solemnities. Lest they be overlooked, it is advisable to mark them in this Calendar. I Local observances are permitted of Saints or Beati connected in some way with the locality, as through birth, ministry, death, or custody of major relics. The Bishop should be consulted in each instance. I On the ‘green’ ferias per annum (of the year) a wide choice of Mass formula is available: EITHER of any of the 34 Sundays per annum (with the prayers of the Sunday selected, or of another Sunday, or those provided ad diversa), OR of any Saint mentioned on that day in the Martyrology, OR of any votive Mass or Mass ad diversa, OR of any Mass for the dead (provided that the daily Mass formula is only used when the Mass is, in fact, applied for the dead). The Requiem Mass which forms part of the funeral rite is allowed on any day except the Paschal Triduum, the Sundays of Advent, Lent and Easter, and the Holydays of Obligation. I The Gloria is said on all Sundays (apart from Advent and Lent), Solemnities, Feasts, and other solemn celebrations, but not on Memorials. The Credo is said on Sundays and Solemnities, and is also allowed at other solemn celebrations. I THE LECTIONARY. On Sundays, Cycle A (Year 1) is to be used until the First Sunday of Advent, when Cycle B (Year 2) begins. The weekday readings are of Year 1. Attention is drawn to the section headed ‘Principles of Choice’ in the introduction. A decided preference is expressed for continuous readings, as provided for the weekdays throughout the year, even though a Memorial occurs (apart from the few instances noted in the Calendar of a strictly proper reading). The 1981 Lectionary provides readings for Feasts observed in this country (Vol II, pp 1316 and fol). For other Solemnities and Feasts lacking proper readings, the appropriate Common should be used, while suitable read- ings may be chosen for special celebrations. I As Eucharistic Prayer IV must always be used with its own preface, the days on which it may not be used have been indicated by the note ‘Not EP IV’. The Eucharistic Prayer for Masses for Various Needs and Eucharistic Prayers for Reconciliation also have integral prefaces, and may not be used on Sundays or days when EP IV is not permitted.

NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

Introduction

In the Catholic tradition the human experience of time is used as a way of engaging us with the saving mystery of Christ’s passion, death and resurrection. The cycle of days, weeks and the whole year is, for this reason, of supreme importance in Christian worship.

Each week, on the day called the Lord’s Day, the Church commemorates the Lord’s resurrection. Once a year, at Easter, the Church honours this resurrection and passion with the utmost solemnity. Through the yearly cycle the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and keeps the anniversary of the saints.

All other celebrations need to find their proper place in the Calendar so that the principal mysteries of the redemption do not lose their appropriate prominence.

Amongst these other celebrations, from the earliest times have been the rogation and ember days, days of prayer for particular need or in thanksgiving for particular blessings of the Lord. Since 1972, the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales has preferred to drop all distinction between ember and rogation days, and to speak simply of Days of special prayer.

In 1972 six such days were introduced, but in the years which followed the number of such days increased to such an extent that they risked intruding on the celebration of the liturgical year, and especially on the celebration of the Lord’s Day on Sundays. Subsequently the Bishops’ Conference concluded that from Advent 1996 these Days of special prayer be subsumed into and replaced by a Cycle of Prayer.

The Cycle of Prayer seeks to preserve the integrity of the Sunday liturgy, without losing sight of the importance of being united with the universal or local Church in praying and working for important intentions. It seeks to do this be encouraging the faithful to pray for the intentions set out in the Cycle in their personal prayers throughout the period specified, and not only at Mass on a particular day.

The Cycle of Prayer is based on a division of the year into six periods, three of these being the principal liturgical seasons of Advent/Christmas; Lent and Easter and the other three periods being divisions of Ordinary Time, namely Winter, Summer and Autumn.

Each of these six periods is allocated its proper series of intentions for prayer, which may be taken up by both individuals and parishes and other groups throughout the season. Each individual intention also has its particular focal point, ie a particular celebration or Day of Prayer ordered by the Holy See.

How might a parish keep the Cycle of Prayer?

Outside of the Liturgy

I Intentions for the whole period might be listed in the parish newsletter or printed on a prayer card so as to help individual parishioners keep in mind and pray for the intentions for that period. EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 3

Diocesan Calendar 147

I Publicity and informational material might be displayed on parish noticeboards. I Prayer-focuses may be placed in an appropriate place in the Church – following the example of the candle symbol popularised by Amnesty International. I Parish meetings might be arranged so as to better inform parishioners about the particular objects of the intention (eg peace, Christian unity, the place and role of women in the Church and the world, the sick, sea-farers, racial justice, prisoners and their families). This will also give the opportunity for parishioners to learn how they might become actively involved in working for the fulfilling of the intentions for which they pray. I Retiring collections might be taken to support particular forms of pastoral activity.

Within the Liturgy

Mass

I On the Day of Special Prayer itself, and especially on Sundays, it is appropriate to announce the Day of Special Prayer in the opening remarks at the beginning of Mass, and for the special intention to be included in the Prayer of the Faithful (Bidding Prayers). Care should be taken that the remaining petitions of the Prayer of the Faithful should be formulated in accordance with the norms given in the General Instruction of the Roman Missal. I When a Day of Prayer or other observance falls on a Sunday, the Mass and Lectionary texts of the Sunday are normally to be used. I On weekdays the use of suitable ‘Masses for Various Needs and Occasions’ or ‘Votive Masses’ should be considered to support the marking of the Day of Prayer. The readings assigned for each day in the Lectionary for weekdays should not be omitted too frequently and without sufficient reason. It is often more fruitful to explore any special intentions through the readings assigned to the day, than to choose from the Common those which may appear at first sight more appropriate to the intention. I The homily at Mass is necessary for the nurturing of the Christian life. It should develop some aspect of the readings from the scriptural readings or liturgical texts of the Mass, while taking into account the mystery being celebrated or the needs proper to the listeners. The homily should not be narrowly confined to the intention of the Cycle of Prayer alone, nor be replaced by a non-homiletic talk or an appeal for money.

Other Liturgies and Celebrations

I When it is desired to have a form of extended prayer for one of the intentions in the Cycle of Prayer, serious consideration should be given to holding a special non- eucharistic service for that purpose, such as a Vigil, the Evening Prayer of the Church, a Liturgy of the Word, or a procession with litanies. I Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, ‘which must clearly express the cult of the Blessed Sacrament in its relationship to the Mass’, should also be considered. It should be noted that there is specific provision within this rite for special prayers. I When considering how particular intentions are to be presented and marked within a parish, every effort should be made to extend the invitation to participate in this to all members of the parish, including the younger members of the parish, and the housebound.

Each of the 50 parishes within the Diocese of East Anglia will be allocated one week during the year during which to pray, not only for the Intentions of the National Cycle of Prayer, but also for Vocations to the Priesthood and to the Religious Life, and the Needs and Intentions of the Diocese. During this week, each Parish shall also have the opportunity to celebrate 40 Hours of Eucharistic Adoration, including as they do so, the specific prayers and initiatives of the New Evangelisation.

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Ordinary Time – (Winter) ie. up to Lent, we are asked to pray for these intentions:

Peace on Earth: especially on 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time and on Racial Justice Day which occurs three Sundays before the 1st Sunday of Lent. The World Day of Prayer for Peace is marked on 1 January. As this day is when the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Mary Mother of God and it is the beginning of the new year in Eng- land, the day is transferred to 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time. There may be a collec- tion on this day for the work of Pax Christi. The day of prayer for Racial Justice is organised by the ecumenical Churches’ Commission for Racial Justice. Within the Catholic Church material is distributed by Catholic Association for Racial Justice (CARJ) for whom a collection may be taken on this day.

Prayer: O God of peace, who are peace itself and whom a spirit of discord cannot grasp, nor a violent mind receive, grant that those who are one in heart may persevere in what is good and that those in conflict may forget evil and so be healed. Roman Missal EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 5

Diocesan Calendar - January 149

Christian Unity: especially during the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity: 18–25 January. The Week of was originally begun in 1908 by the American Episcopalian clergyman Paul Wattson who later became a Catholic. The Week begins on 18 Janu- ary and ends on 25 January—the Feast of the Conversion of St Paul. Material for the Week of Prayer is prepared in collaboration by Pontifical Council for Promoting Chris- tian Unity and The Commission on Faith and Order of the World Council of Churches. Each year this material is produced by Christians in a different country.

Prayer: May the divisions among Christians be overcome so that we may hasten to your eternal Kingdom in the perfect communion of the Church cf. Roman Missal

Victims of Trafficking: especially on feast of St Josephine Bakhita — 8 February. St Josephine Bakhita is the Sudanese Saint who at the age of nine was kidnapped and sold into slavery. She suffered terribly at the hands of her kidnappers so much so that she forgot her birth name. Her kidnappers gave her the name ‘Bakhita’ which means ‘Fortunate’.

Prayer O God, who led Saint Josephine Bakhita from abject slavery to the dignity of being your daughter and a bride of Christ, grant, we pray, that by her example we may show constant love for the Lord Jesus crucified, remaining steadfast in charity and prompt to show compassion. Roman Missal

The Sick and Those Who Care for Them: especially on World Day of Prayer for the Sick — 11 February. On this day, the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes., the Church is asked to pray for and give attention to the sick and those who care for them. Each year the Holy Father writes a message.

Prayer Accept the prayers we offer for our brothers and sisters who are ill, that, having been anxiousfor them in their danger, we may rejoice at their recovery of health. cf. Roman Missal

The Unemployed: especially on the Sunday before Ash Wednesday. The Day of Prayer for the Unemployed was organised by Church Action on Poverty. They have recently renamed their day as Poverty Action Sunday. Caritas-Social Action is the agency in the Catholic Church which acts an umbrella for many diocesan and local organisations concerned with poverty and other social issues.

Prayer O God, the source of human dignity, in your image every person is fashioned and by your Son all people are redeemed. Make us honour the work of your hands, that we may reverence you in those whom the world considers least and serve you in all whom society neglects.

Summary: Peace Day: Sunday 15 January. Octave of Prayer for Christian Unity: 18 – 25 January. Day for Victims of Trafficking: Wednesday 8 February [St Josephine Bakhita]. World Day for the Sick: Saturday 11 February. Racial Justice Day: Sunday 12 February. Day of Prayer for the Unemployed: Sunday 26 February.

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Lent we are asked to pray for these intentions:

Candidates for the Sacraments: especially on the Sundays of Lent For those preparing to be initiated into the Church at Easter, Lent marks the final stage of preparation, the period of Purification and Enlightenment. It begins with the Rite of Election on the First Sunday of Lent. During the season of Lent the Scrutinies are celebrated on the 3rd, 4th and 5th Sundays in preparation for Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist at the Easter Vigil. Many parishes will also receive candidates for Reception into the Church. ‘The people of God, as represented by the local Church, should understand and show by their concern that the initiation of adults is the responsibility of all the baptised.’ ‘During Lent, the period of purification and enlightenment, the faithful should take care to participate in the rites of the scrutinies and presentations and give the elect the example of their own renewal in the spirit of penance, faith, and charity. At the EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 11

Diocesan Calendar - February 155

Easter Vigil, they should attach great importance to renewing their own baptismal promises.’ RCIA 9 The celebration of other Sacraments, such as Confirmation and First Holy Commun- ion, will often take place within the Easter season so that candidates for these Sacra- ments will also be preparing in Lent. These candidates should also be remembered in the prayers of the community.

Prayer Father of love and power, it is your will to establish everything in Christ and to draw us into his all- embracing love.Guide the elect of your Church, strengthen them in their vocation, build them into the kingdom of your Son, and seal them with the Spirit of your promise. Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

The Needy and Hungry of the World; especially on Lenten Fast Day —1st Friday in Lent The agency for overseas development, CAFOD, encourages the Church in England and Wales to use the Friday of the frist week of Lent as an opportunity to remember the needy and hungry of the world. The day is an opportunity the three Lenten disciplines of Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving which derive from the proclamation of the Word on Ash Wednesday. The proceeds from the practice of fasting on the Friday are usually collected at Mass on the 1st Sunday of Lent.

Prayer All powerful Father, God of goodness, you provide for all your creation.Give us an ef- fective love for our brothers and sisters who suffer from lack of food.Help us do all we can to relieve their hunger, that they may serve you with carefree hearts. Roman Missal

Women’s World Day of Prayer; especially on first Friday in March. Women’s World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement of Christian women who come together to observe a common day of prayer held on the first Friday in March each year, and who, in many countries, have a continuing relationship in prayer and service. Through Women’s World Day of Prayer women are encouraged to become aware of their talents and use them in the service of the wider community.

Prayer Father, you have given all peoples one common origin, and your will is to gather them as one family in yourself.Fill the hearts of all women with the fire of your love and the desire to ensure justice for all.Hear the prayers offered you by women throughout the world for an end to all division, and a human society built on love and peace. Roman Missal (adapted)

Penitents and Wanderers:The twin themes of Lent are baptism and penance. Lent is a time of reflection and preparation for Easter. Many parishes offer opportunities for the celebration of the Sacrament of Penance in the Lenten season. In recent years some parishes have explored using the Lenten period as a time to assist those returning to the Church after a period of not being active in the life of the Church. This reflects the ancient practice of the Order of Penitents which reached its end on the morning of Holy Thursday.

Prayer God of power and might, we praise you through your Son, Jesus Christ, who comes in your name.He is the Word that brings salvation.He is the hand you stretch out to EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 12

12 Wed WEDNESDAY OF HOLY WEEK V

13 Thu THURSDAY OF HOLY WEEK (MAUNDY THURSDAY) THE SACRED PASCHAL TRIDUUM The celebrations of the Sacred Triduum are to be carried out in cathedral and parochial churches and only in those churches in which they can be performed with dignity, that is, with a good attendance of the faithful, an appro- priate number of ministers, and the means to sing at least some of the parts. Consequently, it is desirable that small communities, associations and special groups of various kinds join together in these churches to carry out the sacred celebrations in a more noble manner (Norms for the Sacred Paschal Triduum, Roman Missal p. 329 #3). A priest may not celebrate the rites of the Sacred Triduum on his own.

MASS OF THE LORD’S SUPPER W Gl. Pf of Eucharist I. “In communion with, Therefore, Lord” and “On the day before” pr. Not EP IV. The Mass of the Lord’s Supper is celebrated in the evening; crosses may be veiled in white and the altar decorated with flowers in moderation. The tabernacle should be entirely empty and sufficient hosts conse- crated for today and tomorrow. The Altar of Repose should be decorated with flowers and candles. While the Gloria is sung, all the bells in the church are rung and then remain silent until the Gloria of the Easter Vigil. EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 17

Diocesan Calendar - April 161 During the same period, the organ and other musical instruments may be used only to support the singing. The Washing of Feet may take place during the Mass. Follow- ing the Prayer after Communion, the Blessed Sacrament is taken to the Altar of Repose where it is kept in a taber- nacle. Solemn Adoration may not continue after midnight. After the Blessed Sacrament has been transferred, the altar is stripped of all cloths, cross and candles. Fr Michael Kennedy +1973 (Newmarket) Fr Francis Tester +2008 (Walsingham)

14 Fri GOOD FRIDAY. Day of Fast and Abstinence. R Office of Readings and Morning Prayer with the people recommended. The Celebration of the Passion of the Lord about 3pm, unless pastoral reasons suggest a later hour. HC may be given to the faithful only at this celebration, but may be brought to the sick at any hour. According to the Church’s ancient tradition, only the Sacraments of Penance and Anointing of the Sick may be celebrated today and tomorrow. COLLECTION FOR HOLY LAND SHRINES (Mandatory)

15 Sat HOLY SATURDAY.

Today, HC may only be given as Viaticum.

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER During Easter we are asked to pray for these intentions:

New Members of the Church: The Easter Vigil is the usual time to celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist) with Adults. The Easter Season is therefore the time for post-baptismal catechesis or ‘mystagogy’ with the newly baptised or ‘neophytes’.‘This is a time for the community and the neo- phytes together to grow in deepening their grasp of the paschal mystery and in mak- ing it part of their lives through meditation on the Gospel, sharing in the Eucharist, and in doing works of charity.’ RCIA 234. In many communities and dioceses, the Easter Season is a privileged time to celebrate the Sacraments of First Communion and Baptism.

Prayer Father, you give your Church constant growth by adding new members to your family. Help us put into action in our lives the baptism we have received in faith Roman Missal

Vocations: Especially on World Day of Prayer for Vocations — 4th Sunday of Easter The World Day of Prayer for Vocations is held each year on the Fourth Sunday of Easter. In the Gospel of John read on this Sunday, in each of the three years, Jesus speaks of himself as the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd who has come so that people may have life to the full, the one who lays down his life for his sheep, the one who knows his sheep — they recognise his voice.

Prayer Father, in your plan for our salvation you provide shepherds for your people.Fill your EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 18

162 April - Diocesan Calendar

Church with the spirit of courage and love.Raise up worthy ministers of your altars and ardent but gentle servants of the gospel. Roman Missal

Human Work: Especially on St Joseph the Worker —1 May The commemoration of St Joseph the Worker on 1 May was instituted by Pius XII in 1955. It proposes the example and intercession of Joseph as worker and provider.

Prayer God our Father, creator and ruler of the universe, in every age you call men and women to develop and use their gifts for the good of others.With St Joseph as our example and guide, help us to do the work you have asked and come to the rewards you have promised. Roman Missal (adapted)

The Right Use of the Media: Especially on World Communications day — The Ascension of the Lord ‘Go out to the whole world; proclaim the Good News to all creation’ is the message of the Gospel on the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. The Solemnity, which falls on the Seventh Sunday of Easter in England and Wales, offers the starting point for understanding the right use of the media. The day is established by the Pontifical Council for Social Communications and each year there is message from the Holy Father

Prayer Father of light, from whom every good gift comes, send your Spirit into our lives with the power of a mighty wind, and by the flame of your wisdom open the horizons of our minds.Loosen our tongues to sing your praise in words beyond the power of speech, for without your Spirit men and women could never raise their voice in words of peace or announce the truth that is Jesus the Lord Roman Missal

The Church: Especially on Pentecost Throughout the Season of Easter the first reading at Mass is taken from the Acts of the Apostles. Luke tells the story of the early Church from the Ascension and Pentecost to the early missions of the apostles. ‘When the work which the Father gave the Son to do on earth was accomplished, the Holy Spirit was sent on the day of Pentecost in order that he might continually sanctify the Church.’ Then ‘the Church was openly displayed to the crowds and the spread of the Gospel among the nations, through preaching, was begun.’ As the ‘convocation’ of all men for salvation, the Church in her very nature is missionary, sent by Christ to all the nations to make disciples of them.’ Catechism 767 ‘Those who with God’s help have welcomed Christ’s call and freely responded to it are urged on by love of Christ to proclaim the Good News everywhere in the world. This treasure, received from the apostles, has been faithfully guarded by their successors. All Christ’s faithful are called to hand it on from generation to generation, by professing the faith, by living it in fraternal sharing, and by celebrating it in liturgy and prayer.’ Catechism 3

Prayer God our Father, in all the churches scattered throughout the world you show forth the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.Through the gospel and the Eucharist bring your people together in the Holy Spirit and guide us in love.Make us a sign of your love for all people, and help us show forth the living presence of Christ in the world. Roman Missal EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 19

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Ordinary Time (Autumn), i.e. from September to Christ the King, we are asked to pray for these intentions:

The Harvest: the Fruits of Human Work and the Reverent Use of Creation; especially on World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation (1 September) and on last EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 32

176 Diocesan Calendar

Sunday in September or whenever Harvest Festivals are held. ‘The annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation will offer individual believers and communities a fitting opportunity to reaffirm their personal vocation to be stewards of creation, to thank God for the wonderful handiwork which he has entrusted to our care, and to implore his help for the protection of creation as well as his pardon for the sins committed against the world in which we live.’ (Pope Francis, Letter inaugurating World Prayer of Care for Creation) The Church has long celebrated the agricultural harvest. This intention also includes all human work. In all circumstances of human life there are choices to be made regarding the environment and our reverent stewardship of the God’s gift of creation. ‘The external deserts in the world are growing, because the internal deserts have become so vast. Therefore the earth’s treasures no longer serve to build God’s garden for all to live in, but they have been made to serve the powers of exploitation and destruction’ (Benedict XVI, homily at Inaugural Mass, 2005).

Prayer O Lord, good Father, who in your providence have entrusted the earth to the human race, grant, we pray, that with the fruits harvested from it we may be able to sustain life and, with your help, always use them to promote your praise and the well-being of all. Roman Missal

Students and Teachers: especially on Education Day — 2nd Sunday of September The day of prayer for Education is organised ecumenically by the Education agen- cies of the various denominations. In the Catholic Church material is distributed by the Catholic Education Service. There may be a collection for the Agency on this Sunday.

Prayer God is the source of all wisdom and knowledge.Let us ask him to bless those who seek to learn and their teachers.For students, that the Spirit of God may grant them the gifts of wisdom of understanding.For teachers, that they may share their knowl- edge with gentleness, patience, and concern for their students. Book of Blessings

The Spread of the Gospel: especially on Home Mission Day: 3rd Sunday in September and World Mission Day: the penultimate Sunday in October Home Mission Day is on the 3rd Sunday in September. Material for the day is prepared by the Home Mission Desk. There may be a collection to support the work of the agency. World Mission Day is on the penultimate Sunday in October. A Mass ‘for the Spread of the Gospel’ may be celebrated on this Sunday. Each year the Holy Father writes a message for World Mission day. In England and Wales material is produced for parishes by the Pontifical Mission Societies. There may be a collection for their work on this day.

Prayer O God, whose will it is that all should be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, look upon your abundant harvest and be pleased to send workers to gather it, that the Gospel may be preached to all creation and that your people, gathered by the word of life and sustained by the power of the Sacraments, may advance in the path of salvation and love. Roman Missal

Justice and Peace in the World: especially on Harvest Fast Day: first Friday in October. The Harvest Fast Day is one of two such days organised by CAFOD. The money offered from the fasting is usually collected at Mass on the following Sunday. EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 33

Diocesan Calendar 177

Prayer O God, who show a father’s care for all, grant, in your mercy, that the members of the human race, to whom you have given a single origin, may form in peace a single family and always be united by a fraternal spirit. Roman Missal

Prisoners and their Families: especially on Prisoners Sunday (2nd Sunday on October) and in Prisons Week: 2nd Week in October Prisoners Week was a Catholic initiative begun in 1975 by Bishop Victor Guazelli which has since gained ecumenical support and observance. It reflects the work of the Prison Advice and Care Trust which builds on its origins as the Bourne Trust — the Catholic Prisoner’s Aid Society. The Sunday and the following week seek to focus attention not only on the needs of prisoners but on all those involved the field of prison care, prisoners families, victims of crime, prison staff and many volunteers.

Prayer Almighty and merciful God, to whom alone the secrets of the heart lie open, who recognize the just and make righteous the guilty, hear our prayers for your servants held in prison, and grant that through patience and hope they may find relief in their affliction and soon return unhindered to their own Roman Missal

All Victims of War: especially on Remembrance Sunday: 2nd Sunday in November Remembrance Sunday falls on the Sunday nearest Armistice Day, 11 November, which marks the end of the First World War. On this day are remembered all those who gave their lives for their country, all who suffered and died through acts of war and those who were left behind to grieve and mourn. In England and Wales one Mass for the Dead may celebrated on this Sunday.

Prayer O God, merciful and strong, who crushes wars and casts down the proud, be pleased to banish violence swiftly from our midst and to wipe away all tears, so that we may all truly deserve to be called your children. Roman Missal

Young People: especially on Christ the King: 34th Sunday in Ordinary Time. The Church in England and Wales has marked the contribution of young people on Christ the King for many years. Universally it is marked on Palm Sunday. In many parishes it is an opportunity to focus on the role of young people in the Sunday liturgy and in the life of the parish. Over the last few years material prepared to assist the day has used the live simply campaign. There may be a collection for diocesan and nation youth services on this day.

Prayer O God, who gave one origin to all peoples and willed to gather from them one family for yourself, fill all hearts of all young people, we pray, with the fire of your love and kindle in them a desire for the just advancement of their neighbour, that, through the good things which you richly bestow upon all, each human person may be brought to perfection, every division may be removed, and equity and justice may be established in human society.

During Advent and Christmastide, we are asked to pray for these inten- tions:

Openness to the Word of God: especially on 2nd Sunday of Advent In many denominations this Sunday is known as Bible Sunday. This originates from the Collect for this Sunday in the Book of Common Prayer

Prayer Blessed Lord, who caused all Holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: help us so to hear them, to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that, through pa- tience, and the comfort of your holy word, we may embrace and for ever hold fast the hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ.Advent is a time when the Church ‘re-reads and re-lives the great events in salvation history in the ‘“today” of her liturgy’. [CCC 1095]

Prayer All-wise God, as you have granted us to drink with delight from the Word that leads us to know you, in your goodness grant us also to come at length to you, source of all wisdom and stand for ever before your face. Based on a prayer of the Venerable Bede

Migrants and Refugees: especially on 3 December. On December 3rd the Church commemorates St Francis Xavier. This is the day cho- sen by the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People to mark World Migration Day. Each year there is a message from the Holy Father re- flecting on the ‘signs of the times’. “Asylum seekers and refugees - I wish to underline how the tendency is to stop at the question of their arrival while disregarding the reasons for which they left their native land.” [Benedict XVI - Message for World Migration day 2005]

Prayer Lord, no one is a stranger to you and no one is ever far from your loving care.In your kindness watch over refugees and exiles, those separated from their loved ones, EastAnglia2017YearbookOrdo_Layout 1 21/11/2016 10:59 Page 43

Diocesan Calendar - December 187 young people who are lost, and those who have left or run away from home.Bring them back safely to the place where they long to be and help us always to show your kindness to strangers and those in need. Roman Missal: For Refugees and Exiles

Expectant Mothers: especially on 4th Sunday of Advent The Gospel on the 4th Sunday of Advent focusses on the role of Mary in our salva- tion. Over the three year cycle the gospel tells of the betrothal of Mary to Joseph, the Annunciation and the Visitation. The stories prepare us for the Birth of our Lord at Christmas.

Prayer God has brought gladness and light to the world through the Virgin Mary’s delivery of her son.Grant the prayer of all mothers to be as they ask for the birth of a healthy child.May they safely deliver a son or daughter to be numbered among your family, to serve you in all things, and to gain eternal life. Adapted from the Book of Blessing
